If an airline offered passengers from New York to Los Angles reclining seats that were 6’ 8” long, a shoe storage bin, 11 volt outlets and two USB ports, 15” personal monitors, Sirius radio, free WiFi, pre-takeoff drinks, cocktails once airborne, tapas-style food from a famed New York restaurant, espresso drinks from a cappucino machine designed for air travel and amenity kits for Him and Her at about half the price of a regular business class ticket, who wouldn’t take it?

According to a poll by Airfarewatchdog.com, about 64 percent said they wouldn't. Only 10 percent said “yes.” More than 4,200 people responded to the online poll.

JetBlue is offering those perks and more on its flights from J.F. Kennedy airport in New York to Los Angeles and San Francisco for $599 each way. The airline known for its low-frills is calling the classier treatment its Mint package and will begin offering it in June.

The poll didn’t determine whether the respondents were JetBlue fliers, or even if they flew regularly from coast to coast. But George Hobica, Airfarewatchdog president, thought loyalty and routes may have played a part in the voting.

“The other airlines have better loyalty programs that can take you to many more places,” he said in an e-mail.

“In some ways (JetBlue's) product is even better than the other airlines’,” he said.

The other major transcontinental airlines – United and Delta – have upgraded their premium cabins.

JetBlue plans to dedicate 11 new Airbus A321s for the two routes beginning this summer.

“Whether or not (JetBlue) will keep fares that low is anyone’s guess . . . (but if they do) the other airlines may be forced to match on the JFK-LAX route,” Hobica said.
